Heat transfer in gama-phase of oxygen
Abstract
The isochoric thermal conductivity of gama-O2 has been studied on samples of varying density in the temperature interval from 44 K to the onset of melting. The thermal conductivity of nearly free sample decreases at rising temperature along the isochores. It is shown that the absolute value of thermal conductivity in the gama-phase of O2 is close to its lower limit and most of the heat is transported by "diffusive" modes. The growth of thermal conductivity in gama-O2 is attributed to the decay of the phonon scattering at the rotational excitations of the molecules and at the short-range magnetic order fluctuations at rising temperature.
